Great job on the layout n worth building n entertaining friends n family n the kids n grandkids
Thanks for liking my layout
That GP 9 should be converted to soundtraxx DCC n Sound technology the blue box Athearn locomotive's are worth the new technology DCC n Sound
Thanks for your input. I would have to update my layout for DCC before that happens. I’m getting my locomotives ready for DCC first.
Good job. What part number are the new motor mounts? Thanks for sharing.
Thanks. The part number for the Athearn motor mount pads that I used is ATH84026

Ancient Athearn loco.
Yes with an updated motor to keep it running
This will help me so much I have the same locomotive and it has the same broken wheel problem
Nice to hear that my solution can help you. After several weeks of running the locomotive, the repair is still holding together.
I like your layout and the music is a nice touch.
Nice to hear that you like my layout and music choice
Nice Video. I like how you switched it up.

素晴らしい鉄道模型です。でも各列車のスピードが速いのでどうしても、トイトレイン になってしまいます。もう少しゆっくりの方が実感的に思いますがいかがですか。わたしは日本人ですが、ライオネルのSLとかサンタフェのＤLを持っています。レールモデルをたのしんでください。ありがとう。
Thanks for liking my layout. You are right about the speed of the trains but mine is not DCC controlled. Hard to keep the trains at a low speed without having the locomotive stall on the incline.
Enjoy watching your layout running. My first permanent layout was the gg&n built summer of 1986 between 11th and 12th grade. Scenery and decoration looks scary similar to mine before I smashed it all up in early 2000's to build new with larger radius curves. Now 20 years later looking to build the dream layout after so many smaller projects.
Nice to hear that you enjoyed the video and that you had similar layout. I don’t have the heart to smash mine up. I just tweak it here and there to make the trains run better.

I had to do the same thing for 64 pieces of rolling that had couplers mounted to the trucks (talgo trucks). I also replaced all the plastic wheel sets with Walthers Proto 2000 metal wheel sets. This hobby gets expensive when you do upgrades. I also made some wheel pickups out of some thin copper strips I salvaged from an old computer and lit up an REA (Railway Express Agency) mail car and put LED strip lighting in it. I used bright white LED strip (about 12 LED's that can be cut apart at every 3rd LED) and it was too white so I took the coach apart again and painted each LED with yellow acrylic paint. Now it has that warm glow. I remember making a bunch of shims to go under the draft boxes. On some of the coaches I had to drill through the weight and ran the 2-56 tap through it. Those will never come off. And I did the same thing you did and used a 2-56 screw through the center of each coupler to keep them secure. I also placed a small drop of CA beside each screw head before painting them to make sure the screw never backs out. You can use those pieces you cut from the trucks as shims too. Cheers from an ex-Georgian in eastern TN
Thanks for watching. Yes, this hobby is expensive when you start upgrading and making improvements to your layout.
Amazing 😊
Thanks

This is the best video on how to repair any Bachmann Locomotive that has this problem, I have four and can't wait to get started on the repair, PS I have watched Newmoris video channels on how to fix Locomotives and yours is the best.
Thanks nice to hear that you enjoyed my video.
Lionel FunDimensions version was worse
You’re right about that. First generations are worse.
Beautiful setup
Thank you. Nice to hear that you like layout.

Nice job on the lights. We have some older Athearn passenger cars that this would work great for.

Hello! I have a couple of these with cracked plastic wheels.. Can you describe how to remove and install new plastic wheels, and do I need an engine specific wheel rather than a regular rolling stock wheel/
Hi Ted, On my locomotive, the truck side frames were not attached so I twisted the cracked plastic wheel off the axle. Then I was able to replace the wheel with a good one. Twisting it back on. I used an ho scale NMRA gauge tool to properly align the wheels. You probably could use a rolling stock wheel if the wheel is same diameter and can fit on the locomotive axle.
@@SnakeRiverJunction-en3dy Thank you so much for your advice! I enjoy the challenge of fixing trains in my old age now that I am limited physically. Do you have a method of taking the truck sides off of one engine to use on another without breaking the tabs off the truck side like the engine in your video? Thanks!
I tend to use a small slotted screwdriver and carefully pry the side frames off. Doesn’t always work without cracking the tabs off. When you deal with old plastic, tends to break off no matter what you do. Haven’t found an easier way to do it. Little CA glue and it’s back on.
@@SnakeRiverJunction-en3dy Thanks again!
